I Can not be anymore confident about this tab
first off the tuning is one whole step up, no there is not a capo trust me.
An easy way to tune up is to get two guitars, put a capo on the second fret on one of 
and tune to the e string.

I don't know the names of the chords but here's what they mean, ignore what ultimate 
says this is what the chords are meant to be played as

  Em7    Em      D      C      E      
     G     Gm
[E-x-] [E-0-] [E-x-] [E-x-] [E-x-] 
[E-3-] [E-2-]
[A-7-] [A-2-] [A-5-] [A-3-] [A-7-] 
[A-2-] [A-x-]
[D-5-] [D-2-] [D-7-] [D-5-] [D-9-] 
[D-0-] [D-0-]
[G-7-] [G-0-] [G-7-] [G-5-] [G-9-] 
[G-0-] [G-0-]
[B-0-] [B-0-] [B-0-] [B-0-] [B-0-] 
[B-3-] [B-3-]
[E-0-] [E-0-] [E-0-] [E-0-] [E-0-] 
[E-3-] [E-3-]

Now that we have the chords time to learn the song.

Em/Em7             Em/Em7  D
And there's three,         count 'em-three
C
Children playing on the beach.
Em/Em7                   Em/Em7
They were eager to learn,
D                   C        B
To be taught, and to teach
Em/Em7
There's Veronica;
Em/Em7
She's biting her lip
D                             C                   B
As she watches the waves turn white at the tip.
Em/Em7
And there's Vada;
Em/Em7
Radiating with joy,
D                                     C                B
And luckily she still can't stand the sight of a boy.
Em/Em7
And lastly there's Dade;
Em/Em7
His hair dances in the wind,
D                       C        B
And he's wondering what love is,
Em/Em7  Em/Em7  D      C
And why         it has to end.
D                        E
And he can't understand
    B                G              Gm              C
How everyone goes on breathing when true love ends.
B
His mother whispers quietly;
Em7
Heaven's not a place that you go when you die.
          B                       G        Gm    C
It's that moment in life when you actually feel alive
B
So live for the moment.
Em7
And take this advice, live by every word,
B                       G        Gm                  C
Love is just a hoax so forget anything that you have heard
B
And live for the moment now.

Em/Em7
Em/Em7 D C

or play the fill in place of D and C

Em/Em7            Em/Em7       D
And there's three,           count 'em-three
C
Children growing on the beach.
Em/Em7                    Em/Em7
They were eager to learn,
      D              C
To be taught, and to teach


Em/Em7
There's Veronica;
Em/Em7
She's licking her lips
D                                C                  D
As she waits for her real, first passionate kiss.
Em/Em7
And there's Vada;
Em/Em7
She can't admit her jealousy
D                           C                       D
Of her sister Veronica, and how she's so pretty.(and how she's so pretty)
Em/Em7
And lastly there's Dade;
Em/Em7
Still sitting on the dock,
D                        C         D
Ponders his life, and he skips his rocks.
Em/Em7                  Em/Em7
And he wonders when his father will return,
D            C
But he's not coming back.

D                        E
And he can't understand
    B                G              Gm        C
How everyone goes on breathing when true love ends.
B
His mother whispers quietly;
Em7
Heaven's not a place that you go when you die,
          B                       G        Gm    C
It's that moment in life when you actually feel alive,
B
So live for the moment.
Em7
And take this advice, live by every word,
B                      G           Gm                  C
Love is just a hoax so forget everything that you have heard.

Em/Em7             Em/Em7            D
And there's three,         count 'em-three
C
Children missing from the beach.
Em/Em7                     Em/Em7
They were eager to learn,
D                    C
To be taught, and to teach.
Em/Em7
But the sad thing
Em7                                        D
Is that they never lived passed the age of fifteen
       C                  Em/Em7
Due to neglect from their mother
Em7                       D         C              B
Who was bed ridden by her ex-lover, their father.
Em/Em7                      Em7
And she didn't even notice, or pay much attention
D                                 C
As the tide came in and swept her three into the ocean.
Em/Em7             Em7         D     C          B
Now all her advice,         it seems useless.
Em7
No, heaven's not a place that you go when you die.
B                                 G          Gm             C
It's that moment in life when you touch your edge and feel alive.
B
So live for the moment.
Em7
And take this advice, live by every word,
B
Love's completely real,
G         Gm                C
So forget anything that you may have heard,
B
And live for the moment now.
